The proposed SunZia Southwest transmission project would run from central New Mexico to south-central Arizona. The project should not be built through Arizona’s sensitive San Pedro Valley or the Aravaipa Canyon area.
These scoping comments on the proposed SunZia transmission project were submitted on behalf of The Wilderness Society, Sonoran Institute, NRDC, the Rio Grande Chapter of the Sierra Club, Western Resource Advocates, New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, and Defenders of Wildlife.
DENVER — Increased public participation opportunities for the proposed SunZia Southwest Transmission Project were announced by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) today, an encouraging sign to conservationists and renewable energy policy experts.
